Have you been coding non-stop and now you're feeling depressed? The cause may be sympathy. Being surrounded by frowns all day long is enough to make anybody feel like frowning too. Where are the frowns? They're in your code, of course. Many lines of code end with sad emoticons:
Code: Select all
if ( $sad_face ):
ends_in_tears( );
endif;
The solution? Swap the parentheses.
Well, maybe not. That would just make the compiler sad. What are we to do?

Use Smalltalk. No more emoticons.

Regular expressions make me angry. I once wrote one & sent it to my boss, I was sent to anger management.
F*!# you!

Not only is my code peppered with sad emoticons but this piratical looking fellow also lurks in my code, glaring at me implacably.

Hmm. Actually that doesn't work, does it? Mixed up the braces/parentheses
